| Prof Gupta for total review of Kashmir policy | | | ET Plus Report
Jammu, Mar 17: Terming it a right step to snub Pakistan by the Indian Parliament for poking their nose in internal affairs of India, the former Union Minister and MLA, Prof Chaman Lal Gupta Sunday said that mere adoption of the resolution would not suffice.
"There is need for total review of the policies viz- a- viz Pakistan and all concerned in and outside the country should be made it clear that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral
part of India. No mischief would be tolerated," Prof Gupta said in a statement.
In this regard, he recalled the 1965 action of then Prime Minister Lal Bhadur Shastri that any attack in J&K would be taken as an attack on India.
He observed that Pakistan resolution well indicated that it supports cross border terror and the demand for handing over of the body of Afzal Guru to his natives is an another attempt to fish in the troubled waters "but the Parliament has done well by telling Pakistan that enough is enough."
Prof Gupta said there should be total review of the Kashmir policy and it should be made clear in unambiguous terms that the integrity of the country would be defended and there is no ground for any kind of secessionism. "Those who are trying to make a hero of the hanged terrorist, Afzal Guru, cannot be the friends of India," he said.
The former minister ridiculed the silence of Congress sharing power with the National Conference, "in telling its partner that double talking was not in the interest of the country and upmanship with dubious move of some opposition leaders with regard to Afzal Guru or in the matter of AFSPA would not work to appease the separatists who are acting at the dictates and in accordance with the design of Pakistan."
He questioned the utility of LOC Trade and other such like CBM's "unless and until Pakistan gives up the cross border terror and put an end to the proxy war which has already claimed thousands of innocent lives and sufferings to the lakhs of people to get destitute and refugees in their own country." |
